Anthony Mackie plays the role of android officer Leo in the film. He will be the lead officer in the film who the others will follow. 2021 will be a big year for Mackie who is also looking forward to the release of his Disney Plus show 'Falcon and the Winter Soldier'. This show will see Mackie reprise the role of Falcon that he had played in the 'Avengers' series starting from 2014. In fact, his portrayal of Falcon is considered to be his breakout role. In 'Avengers: Endgame', Captain America (Chris Evans) had handed his iconic shield to Falcon, which indicated that Falcon would either carry the mantle from there or that he might even transform into Captain himself.
